Definitions
- the invention relates to a folding box package of a liquid-tight composite cardboard material, more particularly a foil mounted composite cardboard material heat sealably coated on at least the inside, said package having a flat bottom folded-on in one piece and closed by at least one seam, more particularly a web seam, applied flat thereagainst, and two pairs of opposite triangular folding pockets lying flat and sealed over their complete surface.
- Folding box packages of the kind specified are known which have differently constructed bottoms (DT 25 20 401 C2; EP 0093 849 A2; EP 0 133 863 B1). Those folding boxes are produced from a blank or a roll of material for a jacket, the hot sealing of the bottom being performed by ultrasonics, induction, heat pulse, infrared radiation or hot air. Normally, if such folding box packages are intended for the aseptic packaging of goods, prior to filling, a liquid or vaporous sterilizing medium is played on the complete surface of the inside of the packings. The sterilizing medium must subsequently be completely removed from the packing. To enable this to be done, the triangular folding pockets must be sealed over their complete area, to prevent accumulations in the packing.
- the sealing can be most satisfactorily performed by infrared radiation or hot air. Due to the melting point of the heat sealable coating, which is clearly above 100° C., the zones to be sealed to one another must be played on with hot air well above 100° C. The hot air activation of the zones to be sealed to one another has shown that bubble formation causing the risk of leakages takes place on the heat-activated inside of the composite cardboard material. This fact is more particularly noticeable in the case of composite cardboard material foil mounted on the inside, since in that case the bubbles are displaced, so that more leakages take place in the package bottom during sealing.
- the invention is based on the knowledge that the bubble formation is due to humidity, which is present in the composite cardboard material and which, more particularly with an activation temperature well above 100° C., so increases the vapour pressure in the cardboard material that with a dense outer coating, as, for example, with a cardboard coated on the outside for purposes of printing or with a cardboard coated on both sides, steam escapes in the direction of the inside of the composite, where it causes bubble formation and leakages.
- the bubble formation affects more particularly the inner areas--i.e., the large-surface zones to be activated, which are not directly bounded by a cut edge, while the outer areas namely the zones to be activated which lie directly at a cut edge, are clearly less affected by bubble formation, and not at all if correspondingly narrow outer areas extend parallel with and adjoining the cut edge, since in the case of such outer areas the steam can escape via the open cut edges.
- no such steam pressure can build up, since the steam forming during the heat activation of the areas can escape outwards via the perforation, which is of course at first open.
- the activation temperature is non-critical--i.e., there is no need to maintain the temperature within narrow limits.
- the composite cardboard material comprises coated cardboard and/or the inner or outer coating has only slight adhesion to the cardboard, it may be advantageous also to perforate the outside of the composite material in the zone of the areas to be sealed in right into the cardboard, to prevent bubble formation on the outside also.
- FIG. 1a is a detail of a blank for the bottom showing hatched inside inner areas of triangular folding pockets
- FIG. 1b shows the blank illustrated in FIG. 1a having hatched inside outer areas for the web seam
- FIG. 1c shows the blank illustrated in FIG. 1a having hatched outside inner areas in the zone of the triangular folding pockets
- FIG. 1d shows the blank illustrated in FIG. 1a having hatched outside outer areas in the zone of the web seam
- FIG. 1e shows the blank illustrated in FIG. 1a having hatched inner and outer areas which are heat activated on both the inside and the outside,
- FIGS. 2a, 2b, 2c, 2d, and 2e show another blanks having an area subdivision as illustrated in FIGS. 1a to 1e, prior to the folding of the bottom,
- FIGS. 3a, 3c, and 3e show further blanks having an area subdivision as illustrated in FIGS. 1, 1c and 1e,
- FIGS. 4f, 4g', 4h, 4h', 5f, 5g, 5h, and 5h' show folding box packages made from the blanks illustrated in FIGS. 1a to 1e,
- FIGS. 6f and 6h show a folding box package made from the blank illustrated in FIGS. 2a to 2e, and
- FIG. 7f, 7g, and 7h a folding box package made from the blank illustrated in FIGS. 3a to 3e.
- a rectangular blank for a parallelipipedic folding box package consists of a composite cardboard material which is foil mounted on the inside of the package and bears a heat sealable plastics coating (PE) on the inside and outside.
- PE heat sealable plastics coating
- the blank Prior to the forming of the folding box package, the blank is provided with folding lines 1, as shown in the drawings.
- On the inside the heat sealable coating and the aluminium foil are perforated at least in the inner areas 2, shown hatched in FIG. 1a, for the formation of triangular folding pockets 3, but preferably also in the outer areas 4, shown hatched in FIG. 1b, for a web seam 5.
- the composite material is also perforated from the outside in the inner areas 2, shown hatched in FIG. 1c, and the outer areas 4, shown hatched in FIG. 1d.
- FIG. 1e shows the bottom zone of blanks having the inner and outer areas 2, 4 to be activated on both sides for bottom sealing.
- FIGS. 2a to 2e and 3a to 3e show different kinds of other embodiments of blanks for folding box packages having an area subdivision corresponding to that shown in FIG. 1.
- FIGS. 4 to 7 show the bottom area of the various blanks at the individual production steps.
- FIGS. 4 and 5 correspond to the blank illustrated in FIG. 1, FIG. 6 to the blank illustrated in FIG. 2, and FIG. 7 to the blank illustrated in FIG. 3.
- the blank thus prepared is first shaped into a hose of rectangular cross-section, as shown in FIGS. 4f, 5f, 6f and 7f, which show the bottom zone in the activation position. Then the areas of the bottom shown hatched in FIGS. 1 to 3 are activated and the bottom is formed by folding in the direction indicated by the arrows in FIGS. 4f, 5f, 6f and 7f. As a result the triangular folding pockets are formed, as shown in FIGS.
- FIG. 4a shows the finished bottom of a blank as illustrated in FIGS. 1a to 1e
- FIG. 4h' shows the finished bottom of a blank as illustrated in FIGS. 1b or 1d
- FIGS. 5h and 5h' show the finished bottom of a blank as illustrated in FIG. 1b
- FIG. 6h shows the finished bottom of a blank as illustrated in FIGS. 2a to 2e
- FIG. 7h shows the finished bottom of a blank as illustrated in FIGS. 3a to 3e.
- the triangular folding pockets 3 are shown folded laterally outwards and in FIG. 5h' folded on to the bottom of the package.
- FIGS. 3 and FIG. 7 respectively will be used only in the case of a folding box package having a square bottom surface.
